Memories of You (Completed)

Chapter 7

A lot has happened in just a day. And honestly, I felt okay. I felt just so fine and I wish it'll last forever.

For how many times I have been struggling alone, now, I feel like I am not alone anymore. I have Roisin and Laoise. I have Aidan. I have my mom and dad.

The past few days, I had so many realizations. I have chosen to open my eyes and see the beauty of the world. And little by little, I am finding my way to escape out from the dark world.

“So, how have you been these days Blythe?” nakangiting tanong sakin ni tita Kyara

My psychologist. Tita Kyara is a good friend of my mom and dad. She's been the one I'm seeing since I have decided to seek for professional help because I thought I needed it.

“A lot fine tita. Honestly, I've been feeling so alive these days.” nakangiting sagot ko sa kanya

Tumango-tango siya sakin saka ngumiti.

“That's a good sign. Basta, keep yourself busy on things that will make you happy. Focus in it. If ever you feel something again, just call me. Okay?” sabi sakin ni tita Kyara

“Yes tita. Thank you tita. Sobra.” nakangiting sabi ko sa kanya

“Anything for my inaanak!” nakangiting sabi niya saka kami nagtawanan

Napatingin ako sa relo ko at it's getting late na pala.

“Tita, I have to go. Thank you talaga!” sabi ko saka ako tumayo para pumunta kay tita Kyara at yumakap

Tinapik niya ang likod ko at narinig ko ang pagtawa niya ng mahina.

“Also, thank you for not telling mom and dad.” dagdag ko pa saka ako humiwalay sa yakap

“I did you a favor, so do me a favor too. Be the one to tell them about it Blythe.” sagot sakin ni tita Kyara

“I will, tita. I will. I gotta go tita! Take care okay? Mwa!” sabi ko sa kanya saka ako nagflying kiss at tuluyang lumabas ng office niya

Isiunot ko ang shades at cap ko para walang masyadong makakilala sakin. Baka kasi mamukhaan nila ko at isumbong ako kila mommy at daddy.

It's not that I am a celebrity, but my mom and dad have their faces in this world. I mean, their circle of friends do.

Also, this hospital is owned by tita Kyara's family and most of the employees here ay mga kakilala at kaibigan nila mommy. Kaya mas mabuti na ang nag-iingat.

Ayokong mabahiran ang pangalang pinagpaguran ng mga magulang ko dahil lang sakin.

“Hello, mom?” kaagad na bungad ko matapos kong sagutin ang tawag ni mommy

“Where are you? Your dad is waiting for you. Let's eat dinner outside.”

Napangiti ako at sobrang na-excite matapos kong marinig iyong sinabi ni mommy.

“I'm on my way home mommy.” sagot ko

“Alright. Be careful on your way home okay? I love you baby.”

“I love you too mom!” masiglang sabi ko saka ko pinatay ang tawag at nagmadaling lumabas ng hospital saka pumara ng taxi

Sinabi ko sa driver kung saan ako bababa at kaagad naman itong lumarga. Hindi na ko nagsalita pa at itinuon ang atensyon ko sa phone ko matapos kong makita ang pangalan ni Aidan sa notifications.
